PRICES VERY LOW WALKER-HOOD FURNITURE COMPANY “The Store of Great Values Where Your Credit is Good” PHONE 599 80 PLANT AVENUE Waycross Facts! Much lius been .sai-1 in thii paper concerning the various phases of Young Men’a Christian Aaaociatiou work. Itcferouco lias boon made to tho liolji that lias been given young men and boya in various ways; but it is not likely that many of the people realize the tremendous uuder-eurreut of character building ami character strengthening that ia going on in a quiet way through tho work of the association in our own city. Wo tako occasion to quota a few out of tho many instances that will givo somewhat of an idea, i hough a limited one, of the far-reaching character of its activities. From a business lean of prouiincnco: “You cauuot imagine how much I miss tho gymnasium and other advantages of tho Young Men’s Christian Association. You will remember that I had a room in your building for a month. Tho advantages taken of the gymnaaium every morning did me much good. I am aurprised that ao few men of Waycroia take advantage of it. I certainly hopo that I may secure a room in your building on uiy return.” From a young man: “If God and you will forgivo me, I will never be guilty of taking monoy again as long as 1 live. I give iny heart to God and will join tho Church tomorrow. Don’t forget to pray for me and I will never disappoint you.” From a young man of foreign nationality: "I eamo to you an outcast and a wanderer on earth and atrangcr to God. You helped me; therefore, with your help and tho help of God, I will become a better mau. It must have been the hand of God that led me here. Words cannot oxplaiu my gratefulness but I will allow how thank ful 1 am in the future.” From another young man: “I came to you a stranger without a friend iu this town and you took mo in, allowing me tho right aide of liie. I thank you for this kind deed and will show there is some manhood in me by doing the right thing, f.am done with the fast life and am going to start anew with God’s help.” ’ Prom a pastor: “It was a joy to my heart to hear Rrothcr lift his heart to God in prayer at our prayer meeting. 1 say it for the encouragement of your association. With best wishes, yours cordially.” The Wayerosa Association has never been properly equipped to do satisfactory work. It has been compelled, as one friend aptly put it, to try “to fly with one wing.” The campaign now drawing to a close is for the purpose of removing this stigma from the good name of our fair city. The proposition is a plain matter of bus iness. An industry valued at about $100,000.still lacks a small amount of having subscriptions enough to save it from the block of the auctioneer. It needs not only this amount to save it but an ad ditional amount sufficiently large to properly equip it and afford opportunity to do a work satisfactory to its officers ami to the public. ST. AUGUSTINE IS SWEPT BY FIRE. (Continued From Page 1.) ty this morning was gotten under control at liino forty-five.
